Short bio
I am a researcher employed by INRIA, in the TEXMEX team headed by Patrick Gros.
I am a former student of the Ecole Normale Superieure de Cachan, holding a M.S. (2002) and PhD (2005) from University of Rennes I.
During my PhD, I worked on error-resilient compression and joint source channel coding, supervised by Christine Guillemot. After that, I turned out to Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition. I joined the LEAR group (INRIA Grenoble) as a permanent researcher in 2006, and moved to INRIA Rennes in 2009.
My work is mainly focused on large scale image/video/audio retrieval, and multi-dimensional indexing techniques. I have designed methods that scale from millions to billions of vectors/images while being ressource efficient (one machine, relatively low memory usage).
Sample image search demo on 10,000,000 images based on my indexing technique: Bigimbaz.
